<\/p>\nAvant d\u2019installer un syst\u00e8me \u00e0 \u00e9nergie renouvelable, nous vous recommandons fortement d\u2019\u00e9valuer l\u2019efficacit\u00e9 \u00e9nerg\u00e9tique de votre immeuble. Dans la plupart des cas, \u00e9quiper en rattrapage une maison ou une entreprise pour am\u00e9liorer la consommation d\u2019\u00e9nergie est bien moins co\u00fbteux qu\u2019implanter une nouvelle technologie et peut avoir des retomb\u00e9es importantes sur votre facture \u00e9nerg\u00e9tique.<\/p>\n

L\u2019efficacit\u00e9 est le rendement avec lequel un dispositif peut convertir un intrant en un extrant souhait\u00e9. L\u2019\u00e9nergie peut prendre plusieurs formes, dont la chaleur, l\u2019\u00e9lectricit\u00e9, le bruit et l\u2019\u00e9nergie m\u00e9canique. Par exemple, une ampoule \u00e0 incandescence moyenne de 60 W a une efficacit\u00e9 d\u2019environ 2,5 %. Cela signifie que sur les 60 W<\/abbr> a une efficacit\u00e9 d\u2019environ 2,5 %. Cela signifie que sur les 60 W<\/abbr> d\u2019\u00e9nergie \u00e9lectrique envoy\u00e9e \u00e0 l\u2019ampoule, seulement 1,5 W<\/abbr> sert \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e9clairage, les 58,5 W<\/abbr> restants \u00e9tant lib\u00e9r\u00e9s sous une autre forme d\u2019\u00e9nergie \u2014 g\u00e9n\u00e9ralement, de la chaleur.<\/p>\n L\u2019efficacit\u00e9 \u00e9nerg\u00e9tique fait en sorte que vous tirez le maximum de chaque kilowatt pay\u00e9. Si vous payez pour 10 kW<\/abbr> d\u2019\u00e9nergie pour chauffer votre maison, mais que 5 kW<\/abbr> se perdent \u00e0 cause de murs mal isol\u00e9s, votre maison n\u2019est pas tr\u00e8s \u00e9conerg\u00e9tique. Pour cette raison, il est important d\u2019envisager des am\u00e9liorations \u00e0 l\u2019efficacit\u00e9 \u00e9nerg\u00e9tique avant d\u2019installer un syst\u00e8me \u00e0 \u00e9nergie renouvelable. Si un tel syst\u00e8me produit 10 kW<\/abbr> d\u2019\u00e9nergie, mais que vous en perdez 5 kW<\/abbr>, il ne vous permettra pas d\u2019\u00e9conomiser beaucoup d\u2019argent.<\/p>\n Il existe plusieurs fa\u00e7ons d\u2019am\u00e9liorer l\u2019efficacit\u00e9 \u00e9nerg\u00e9tique d\u2019une maison ou d\u2019une entreprise, notamment :<\/p>\n Rappelez-vous qu\u2019am\u00e9liorer l\u2019efficacit\u00e9 \u00e9nerg\u00e9tique consiste \u00e0 bloquer la voie de la moindre r\u00e9sistance. Si les murs de votre b\u00e2timent sont bien isol\u00e9s, mais que vous perdez de la chaleur par des fen\u00eatres non calfeutr\u00e9es, la meilleure fa\u00e7on d\u2019am\u00e9liorer l\u2019efficacit\u00e9 \u00e9nerg\u00e9tique n\u2019est probablement pas d\u2019accro\u00eetre l\u2019isolation des murs. Si vous n\u2019\u00eates pas certain de la meilleure fa\u00e7on d\u2019am\u00e9liorer votre b\u00e2timent, faites appel \u00e0 un \u00e9valuateur en \u00e9nergie.<\/p>\n M\u00eame si cela semble \u00e9vident, vous pouvez aussi \u00e9conomiser de l\u2019argent en r\u00e9duisant la quantit\u00e9 d\u2019\u00e9nergie que vous consommez. De nombreux appareils \u00e9lectroniques domestiques continuent \u00e0 consommer de l\u2019\u00e9lectricit\u00e9 m\u00eame s\u2019ils ne servent pas. Ces puits d\u2019\u00e9nergie sont appel\u00e9s charges fictives.<\/i> La meilleure fa\u00e7on de les \u00e9liminer est de d\u00e9brancher les appareils lorsque vous ne les utilisez pas. Parmi les exemples types de charges fictives, on peut citer :<\/p>\n Before installing any renewable energy systems, it is highly recommended to first evaluate the energy efficiency of the building. In most cases, retrofitting the home or business to improve energy use is far less costly than implementing renewable technologies, and can have significant impacts on your energy bills. What is efficiency? Efficiency refers to how effectively an object can convert an input into a desired output. Energy may take many forms including, but not limited to: heat, electricity, noise, and mechanical energy. For example, the average 60 W incandescent light bulb is about 2.5% efficient. This means that for every 60 W of electrical energy sent to the bulb, only about 1.5 W is used for lighting and the other 58.5 W is released as another form of energy \u2014 usually heat. Energy efficiency is all about making sure that you are getting the most out of every kilowatt that you pay for. If you are paying for 10 kW of energy to heat your house but 5 kW of energy leaves through poorly insulated walls, your house is not very energy efficient. For this reason, it is important to consider energy efficiency upgrades before installing a renewable energy system. If a renewable energy system generates 10 kW of energy but you\u2019re losing 5 kW, the system won\u2019t be saving you very much money. Improving energy efficiency Ways to improve the energy efficiency of a home or building include: Install an energy efficient furnace or heat pump Insulate the attic and basement Insulate the windows Install weatherstripping on the doors Set the temperature on your thermostat to a lower setting at night Replace incandescent light bulbs with energy efficient CFL or LED versions (while these light bulbs are initially more costly, they use significantly less energy and last up to 25 times longer) Turn off and unplug electrical devices at night or while not in use Remember that improving energy efficiency is all about blocking the path of least resistance. For a building with well-insulated walls that is losing heat through unsealed windows, the best way to improve energy efficiency probably isn\u2019t adding more insulation to the walls. If you aren\u2019t sure about what the best way to improve your building is, contact an energy auditor.

Many household electronics continue to use electricity, even when they are not in use. These energy sinks are referred to as phantom loads. The best way to deal with these loads is to unplug such devices when not in use. Examples of typical phantom loads include: Devices with a continuous electronic display, such as a clock or standby light Video game consoles Computers and printers Devices with a remote control Sound systems Microwave ovens<\/p>","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"page-template.php","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-2244","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/renewablesnb.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2244","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/renewablesnb.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/renewablesnb.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/renewablesnb.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/renewablesnb.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2244"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/renewablesnb.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2244\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2246,"href":"https:\/\/renewablesnb.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2244\/revisions\/2246"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/renewablesnb.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2244"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Am\u00e9lioration de l\u2019efficacit\u00e9 \u00e9nerg\u00e9tique<\/h2>\n
